The Athletic has an article up about each NFL team's best off season move. Most seemed to emphasize the positive even if the franchise wasn't in the best shape, such as Arizona, Atlanta, Chicago, etc. Vic Tafur, who writes about the Raiders, was an exception. He seems to hate his team and his job. This is his description of the Raiders' "best" off season move:

"Signing guard Greg Van Roten. Hear me out … It can’t be signing Jimmy Garoppolo after you find out the quarterback needs foot surgery. It can’t be adding wide receiver Jakobi Meyers in what was essentially a swap for Darren Waller, given the eagerness with which the Patriots moved on from Meyers. The defensive moves in free agency were all largely for depth, besides a couple of plug-in starters. Drafting Tyree Wilson and Michael Mayer seems wise, but they slipped because of a foot injury and lack of athleticism, respectively, and the Raiders haven’t earned any benefit of the doubt. So … signing a tough guy in Van Roten — 33 years old and coming off a four-start season with the Bills — to either start or boost the team’s depth is the crown jewel of the offseason."

I read the article and Tafur's comments were the only ones to make me say "Ouch." Makes me think that Raiders are kind of like the Cowboys and the Commanders. They won't get better until they get a better owner.

Mark seems to make a higher and then get out of the way. Those choices just haven't worked out. Maybe an Andy Reed type coach will come along after they go through their Patriots east faze just like the Chiefs did.

When I see this thread, or Denvers thread bumped all I can think about is this

https://media.tenor.com/BcbJSegK1RsA...per-madmen.gif

Carr and his "wife"

ROFL Oh my goodness that had me laughing my butt off.

What's even funnier is that despite how bad the Raiders have been, they still own a 7 game win streak over Denver.

The Raiders suck worse now than they did when this thread was created...LMAO

Good thing McDumpster signed Middy G!

At least, the franchise will always have the Bowlcut.

Freighters still had piss jugs left in his big rig

Meh, he was huge in that run, so I can't hate him. The faid are no threat to us with or without him

I figured this thread bump would be about Davante Adams

As bad as this is. The NFL off-season champ Chargers, can't maintain a win streak against the Broncos

Yet the Faders have dominated the Dungkeys for 1321 days….. and counting:)

Great position the Chiefs are in as they are the top dogs right now. Everyone is trying to knock them off that perch. Every team will give them their best and that will help the Chiefs improve or falter.

They’re so envious they should change the silver and black to shades of green.

Raiders have been sucking ballz for a long time but I would argue the only thing they have going for them is the badass silver and black. Best in the NFL and not even close ;)

Of course I'm referring to the old days when they had badasses on those historic teams.......Carr is the poster boy of one who never deserved to wear that jersey. Pussy boy still pisses me off

I'll get you my pretty, and your little qb too

So, apparently despite paying $2 Billion for a brand new stadium, the Raiders new stadium, like Oakland Coliseum, still leaks in the rain:

That's the raiderest thing I've ever seen ROFL

That just doesn't seem right. Ain't no one coming to the game with rain gear on though.

They'll get it fixed as LV rarely see rain. Still 3B cheaper then LA's new stadium.

ROFL

What an embarrassment.

Raider franchise is worth $6.2 billion. Davis isnt embarrassed. He can buy a wig with some of that

It's gotta feel like a steel cage deathmatch with Mcdumbass and those players.

Not sure what’s going on with Chandler Jones, but he lost me when he said he is going to seek the advice of Aldon Smith and AB. Might as well seek advice from Goofy and Donald Duck at that point.

The chinstrip is still buckled.

Is there a head in there? Or did he just pick that up off an equipment rack somewhere?

That's just Crosby staring at the helmet he wishes he could wear.

Dude is washed anyway. Hope this gives us a way to dump him.

So he's a lefty, nothing to see here

You just love to see them continue their suckitude

I think Davis was telling the fans to slow down on the booze.

Overall not a good look for the Raiders. McDaniel's is not a good coach and will be fired if this losing continues.

They may get Drake Maye which would suck but until they get a decent coach they're screwed.

Should’ve hired a plane to fly over on game day.

That would absolutely be a Faders fan thing to do.

The kids are making mud pie and dog turd reeces

Raiders need new ownership. Nothing will change until that happens.

WHAAAAT?! Don't be silly, bowl cut is doing a fantastic job!

Do you even math bruh?

Seriously though, either that clown doesn't know he can go for two, or he wouldn't even consider going for it. Which is it?

He wants to fire McDaniels but he can't afford to, which is why he is try to give away part of the team to Brady at a discount, because he needs cash flow.

That's a dumb statement.

People would like up around the block to pay the going rate for a piece of the Raiders.

NFL teams don't have cash flow problems.

He is a dimwit who is replaying the same damn script he used in Dungver.

I'm not sure why mark hired him knowing how shit went down in Denver, but I'm glad he did.

It's been reported by many. Sports Illustrated for instance.

Actually it's a Chiefs original. Guess you weren't around during that time.

So you're saying flying a banner around the stadium would be a Raider idea?

Anyone else here have input on this very unique Raider idea according to Coochie?

Because they play in a ****ing dome, numbskull!! Mark won’t even see it and neither will the fans in attendance. Get it now?? ROFL

I just hope the Broncos rally and win enough games to keep them out of the Caleb sweepstakes. I want them to lose as many games as possible to have that happen. Same for the Raiders.

Lmao who is the legend in the video?

that tattoo is funny but also very agreeable though(unless you are a donk fan to which **** you), she should be proud of it

FYP.

No NFL team has cash issues.

They lost 3-0? LMAO

The AOC fan base has realized what every football fan with a brain knew: don't believe in preseason hype.

The dude doesn't have it.

I think it was a game ending FG too...I mean it was 0-0 for a long time...

Would have been epic for it to go to overtime and end in a 0-0 tie.

That proves the AOC fanbase is much smarter than the Carr fanbase since it took them 9 years to finally pull the plug on the lost cause.

Imagine how stupid one is if they still today think Carr is the answer

you gonna lay down in arrowhead and give us a 27-3 win we don't deserve, aren't you?

Don’t deserve? Every win against the raiders, regardless of who they are playing, is deserved. They are the literal spawn of Lucifer fallen and Oakland whores, shit stains on the record of mankind, and they likely DO kiss their mothers with those mouths.

Every win against the raiders is deserved because every loss they sustain is deserved. **** the raiders.

You got your ass kicked at an Oakland game it seems. I can understand why you don't like that Las Vegas team.

Your stereotype has been updated.

That’s the best you can come back with? Some fantasy about a Chiefs fan getting his ass kicked by some raiders fan thug? The raiders fan base is as pathetic as their vagabond team is these days.

You all Raiders bro lol.

See my avatar. I took that pic. That's you surrounded by security for protection at the old coliseum.

I’ve never set foot in Oakland, let alone that aids infested shit hole of a stadium.

You never been there but you think it's a shithole?

I mean if it’s full of raider fans…

BUT, is it or is it not the same stadium that had the sewer running up into the dugouts during an A’s game?

It was old and rough but it had character. Raiders went from the cheapest game ticket then to now the most expensive.

Some might not feel safe walking down the streets next to the coliseum.

Definite shithole but it was our shithole lol. I have many memories at the HOT (House of Thrills) in its day. Tailgating was second to none. Most fans were from the greater Bay Area and Central Valley. The City of Oakland itself was/is a definite shithole.

Have you been to Arrowhead?

Do you know what second to none means?

Does not mean best. Means none are better. Arrowhead knows how to tailgate, but it isn't better than the other great tailgate stadiums around the league. Not worse either.

We might get grapes
